: This qualitative pilot study explored the use of AI-assisted visual elicitation, integrated with sensory-attuned guided reflection, to support emotional articulation and therapeutic engagement in individuals with AN. We recruited two adult patients, each with a clinical diagnosis of AN (restrictive subtype), from a specialist ED outpatient service. To protect anonymity, we refer to the participants as Patient 1 (P1) and Patient 2 (P2). The clinical team made the diagnoses at the time of admission. We collected the data as part of a broader sensory ethnographic project, approved by the local NHS Research Ethics Committee (Ref.: 23/LO/0698). Informed consent was obtained from both participants, covering the use of anonymised qualitative data for scientific publication and dissemination.
